NEW the Kimber CDS9 Micro-Compact Pistol [First Look]

NEW from Kimber comes the CDS9!! A micro compact handgun built on a robust all-metal frame, the CDS9 is optics-ready with the RMSc footprint and includes an accessory rail for lights and lasers. It features an ambidextrous safety and slide release, along with a reversible magazine release, ensuring versatility for all users. G10 grips and an alloy frame are available across both models, and for those seeking additional options, the CDS9 is also available with a threaded barrel in the TFS model.

The CDS9 comes with both a 13-round and 15-round magazines with 10-round flush fit magazines available separately for enhanced concealability. For regions with capacity restrictions, ergonomic extended grip 10-round models will soon be available.

As a successor to the KDS9c, the CDS9 is Kimber’s dedication to leading the premium concealed carry market. Born out of the Kimber 1911, the CDS9 trigger features a straight pull with either flat-faced or bowed trigger that provides a solid wall and crisp break. Its dual recoil spring assembly replaces traditional guide rods, delivering an exceptionally smooth shooting experience in a micro-compact package. The CDS9 comes standard with premium TAG sights, featuring a locking front fiber optic and tactical rear sights.

Mountie Mizer, Vice President of Sales, stated, “The CDS9 is a spectacular example of Kimber’s commitment to creating consumer-focused products. This handgun perfectly balances capacity and concealability, making it an outstanding choice for those who prioritize both.”

A full range of holsters, magazines, and accessories for the CDS9 will be available through local dealers and online at kimberamerica.com. The Kimber CDS9 is available now and has an MSRP of $1,075, as well as a TFS variant with a threaded barrel that has an MSRP of $1,095.
